The purpose was to investigate the superficial deposits of the clyde area, this survey was Phase 1 of a 5 phase project. Sea floor data were collected using echosounder and sidescan sonar. Sub-bottom seismic profiling data were collected using Pinger and Sparker. These records are archived by BGS. Details of the survey are contained in IGS report 73/9.
